Stew. I must needs after him, Madam, with my Letter

Reg. Our troopes set forth to morrow, stay with vs:

The wayes are dangerous

Stew. I may not Madam:

My Lady charg'd my dutie in this busines

Reg. Why should she write to Edmund?

Might not you transport her purposes by word? Belike,

Some things, I know not what. Ile loue thee much

Let me vnseale the Letter

Stew. Madam, I had rather-

Reg. I know your Lady do's not loue her Husband,

I am sure of that: and at her late being heere,

She gaue strange Eliads, and most speaking lookes

To Noble Edmund. I know you are of her bosome

Stew. I, Madam?

Reg. I speake in vnderstanding: Y'are: I know't,

Therefore I do aduise you take this note:

My Lord is dead: Edmond, and I haue talk'd,

And more conuenient is he for my hand

Then for your Ladies: You may gather more:

If you do finde him, pray you giue him this;

And when your Mistris heares thus much from you,

I pray desire her call her wisedome to her.

So fare you well:

If you do chance to heare of that blinde Traitor,

Preferment fals on him, that cuts him off

Stew. Would I could meet Madam, I should shew

What party I do follow

Reg. Fare thee well.

Exeunt.

Scena Quinta.

Enter Gloucester, and Edgar.

Glou. When shall I come to th' top of that same hill?

Edg. You do climbe vp it now. Look how we labor
